| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 7, 2010 One of the best American made lager from a bottle. A orangy/bronze color. Nice hoppy aroma. Pours to a nice head. The head slowly fades during the course of drinking, but never completely leaves. Has a bit of a sweet floral throughout. Nice aftertaste. It is the first beer I have had in a long time that I tried to get the last of the foamy head out of the bottom of the empty glass, it was that tasty. I highly recommend this beer. I plan on buying more asap. GAManiac (1212), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 6, 2010 12oz bottle from thecarster1 poured into a pint glass.
Pours a deep golden amber with a steady stream of bubbles from the bottom feeding a very thick white head that stays on as a cap for the duration.
The aroma is subtle light biscuity malts, some toasted grains and a bit of grassy hops. The hops are also right up front in the taste with a floral grassy taste up. The backbone is decidedly sweet with lightly toasted caramel malts before a crisp, barely-bitter finish.
The mouthfeel is extremely smooth and very clean and crisp with a strong carbonation that all pulls together to make an excellent lager. It’s smooth, fairly sweet and has none of the skunky characters you sometimes get in a run-of-the-mill lager. Enjoyed this one thoroughly. asheft (1589), Marburg, Germany

Nice US hops aroma: pine is stronger than grapefruit, then some caramel. Clear bronze with a clingy, lacy white top. Nice hoppy caramel flavour that is slightly lemony and with some faint peanuts. Also bitter grapefruit. Crisp finish, medium carbonation. hayduke (1693), Eureka, California, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 26, 2009 Quite good lager. Fruity and flowery European-lager-tasting hops added to a full bodied American lager. It tasted familiar but much hoppier. It worked and is very refreshing.
